2019 Puligny-Montrachet Premier Cru Perrières Etienne Sauzet

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - 2019 Puligny-Montrachet Premier Cru Perrières, Etienne Sauzet

The 2019 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Perrières is showing well, unfurling in the glass with bright, gently reductive aromas of crisp orchard fruit, toasted nuts and fresh bread. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and incisive, with a lively spine of acidity and a saline finish, it's promising. - William Kelley, Jan. 2021

Allen Meadows' Burghound - 2019 Puligny-Montrachet Premier Cru Perrières, Etienne Sauzet

Firm reduction presently dominates the underlying fruit. Otherwise there is excellent cut, minerality and a sophisticated texture to the driving middle weight flavors that tighten up immediately on the refined, highly complex and sneaky long finish. This isn't quite as concentrated but overall, there is just a bit more here. - Allen Meadows, June 2021

Vinous - 2019 Puligny-Montrachet Premier Cru Perrières, Etienne Sauzet

The 2019 Puligny-Montrachet Les Perrières 1er Cru sported a lot of reduction on the nose that made it difficult to read on my visit. The palate meanwhile, is clean and fresh, slightly reduced with a dense, concentrated orange pith and mandarin finish. That reduction will go by the time of bottling, although I am more convinced by some of the domaine's other cuvées at this early juncture. - Neal Martin, Dec. 2020
